How to Buy a Gun Online: A Comprehensive Guide
Acquire a Firearm Online
GUIDE ON ACQUIRING FIREARMS ONLINE
This comprehensive guide aims to simplify and elaborate on the online firearm acquisition process, empowering you with the knowledge needed to navigate your next firearm investment confidently. Regardless of your location within the United States, it’s crucial to understand that firearms purchased online must be delivered to a Federal Firearms Licensed Dealer (FFL Dealer). Before placing any orders, it’s imperative to review all local and state laws governing firearm purchases to ensure compliance.
To legally acquire a firearm online, certain criteria must be met. You must be at least 21 years old to acquire a handgun, stockless shotgun, total AR or AK receiver, or a stripped lower receiver. Additionally, you should be a legal state resident if you intend to transfer the firearm, with the exception being active-duty military personnel. It’s essential to note that straw purchasing, the act of buying a firearm to give it to another person, is illegal. Palmetto State Armory strongly condemns this act and does not endorse any form of illegal firearm transactions.
Arrange Transfer with an FFL Dealer
Once you’ve selected and purchased your firearm online, the next step is to arrange its transfer to you through an FFL Dealer. The FFL Dealer will serve as the shipping address for your order and will handle the necessary background checks and paperwork required by federal law. It’s crucial to communicate with your chosen FFL Dealer to inform them that you want them to receive the firearm for transfer from Old Guard Armory (OGA).
By following these steps and adhering to legal requirements, you can confidently and legally acquire firearms online. At Old Guard Armory, we prioritize compliance, safety, and responsible firearm ownership, ensuring that every transaction is conducted with the utmost transparency and legality. Should you have any questions or require assistance throughout the process, our knowledgeable team is here to help.
